I know that it's November 1st, but I still thought I'd share the mani I did to match my Halloween costume from last Saturday.
Here's what I used for my matching mani:
And here's what I did!
For the gradient, I started with one coat of Cleopatra, and then two coats with a sponge with both Cleopatra and Felicity. Click here to watch my gradient tutorial! When they were dry, I added a coat of Paris (from Julep, not pictured because I forgot, whoops) to the tips for some sparkle!
For the leopard, I did two coats of Felicity, and then randomly put blobs of I'm Not Lion with a dotting tool. When that was dry, I went around the edges of the sparkle with Cleopatra (using a smaller dotting tool).
And speaking of dotting tools, have you entered my awesome nail art essential giveaway? Well, after you see what the other nail filers are sharing for the week, scroll down and enter! The giveaway is open until midnight tonight (EST)! Good luck!

What a great costume! I'm loving the gradient, now I'm wishing I'd picked up Cleopatra, as I'm guessing it's going to be quite versatile in nail art.
Love this! It matches your costume perfectly!! Plus you're just a great artist when it comes to doing your nails, seriously wish I had your mad skills!
